Don't expect Al Horford back with the Boston Celtics next season. Entering what projects as a gap year, the franchise has openly acknowledged that reality.
"I would say that's unlikely," voiced Brad Stevens at a July press conference. "The only reason I haven't talked about Al is because it's not final. I could probably talk about Al for my whole press conference and not say enough. But, I don't want to speak in absolute terms until an ultimate decision is made."
While the long-held belief is that Horford signs with the Golden State Warriors, perhaps that won't be the case, either.
